"I'm not gonna kill U
I want U 2 do me a favor
I want U 2 tell all your friends about me"

"What are U?"

"I'm Batman!"

CHORUS:
I've seen the future and it will be
I've seen the future and it works
If there's life after, we will see
So I can't go like a jerk
Systematic overthrow of the underclass
Hollywood conjures images of the past
New world needs spirituality that will last
I've seen the future and it will be

CHORUS

Yellow Smiley offers me X
Like he's drinkin' 7-Up
I would rather drink 6 razor blades
Razor blades from a paper cup
He can't understand, I say 2 tough
It's just that I've seen the future and, boy, it's rough

I?- I've seen the future and it will be
I've seen the future and it works
And if there's life after, we will see
So U can't go like a jerk - no, no

I've seen the future and it will be
Wait a minute

Pretty pony standin' on the avenue
Flashin' loaded pistol, 2 dumb 2 be true
Somebody told him playin' cops and robbers was cool
Would our rap have been different if we only knew?

I've seen the future and it will be
I've seen the future and it works
And if there's life after, we will see
Don't go out like a jerk

Systematic overthrow of the underclass
Hollywood conjures images of the past
New world needs spirituality that will last
I've seen the future and it will be, alright
I've seen the future and it will be {x2}

Oh

I've seen the future and it will be {x3}

"Think about the future!"

I saw your friend first
That's who I danced with
All the time I was watchin' U
The music rocked us
Our eyes locked thus
Makin' us see a trippy picture shoo

Oh, if a man is considered guilty 4 what goes on in his mind
Then give me the electric chair 4 all my future crimes, oh!

U whispered something
It took my mind out
Like a G (G flat) major with the E in the bass
Your face looked so good
I wanted 2 touch your mouth
My brain is jackin' all over the place

Oh, if a man is considered guilty 4 what goes on in his mind
Then give me the electric chair 4 all my future crimes, oh!

Yeah, yeah {x2}

Let's take a drive, love
So we can make up our minds, love
2 commit the crimes of passion that sets us free
Me lovin' U, U lovin' me

Ow!
The electric chair!

I saw your friend first
That's who I danced with
All the time I was watchin' U (I was watchin' U)
The music rocked us
Our lives shocked us
Makin' us see a trippy picture shoo
I've got 2 have it! (Said I've got 2?- yeah!)

If a man is considered guilty 4 what goes on in his mind (Guilty)
Then give me the electric chair 4 all my future crimes, oh!

U know I'm guilty, yeah? (4 all my future crimes, oh!)
I'm guilty, yeah! (4 all my future crimes, oh!)
And if U don't really love me! (Then give me the electric chair)
Ow!

The electric chair

Orion's arms are wide enough 2 hold us both 2gether
Although we're worlds apart, I'd cross the stars 4 U

In the heart of a sleepless moon, I'll be with U 4ever
This is my destiny till my life is through

CHORUS:
The Arms of Orion, that's where I wanna be
Since U've been gone
I've been searching 4 a lover in the Sea of Tranquility
Drowning without U here, my dear

When I am lost or feeling lonely, I just look 2 heaven
I find my comfort there
God only knows where U are 2night

God only knows where U are 2night
Maybe time will tell me
Till then I close my eyes, say a prayer 4 U
(Say a prayer 4 U 2)

CHORUS

Orion's heart is bright enough 2 shine on both of us
The constellations never fail 2 light the way 4 love

Orion's arms are wide enough 2 hold us both 2gether
Although we're worlds apart (I'd cross the stars 4 U)
I'd cross the stars 4 U

CHORUS
(Oh)

The Arms of Orion, that's where I wanna be
Since U've been gone I've been drowning (Lost)
In the Sea of Tranquility (Lonely)
Drowning without U here (Baby)
My dear (Drowning without U, oh)

Arms of Orion
That's where I wanna be (Where I?-)
That's where I wanna be (The Arms of Orion) {x2}
Since U've been gone, babe
Since U've been gone, I've been drowning (Drowning)
Drowning, drowning without your love
The Arms of Orion (Arms of Orion)

"Gentlemen, let's broaden our minds! Lawrence!"

"I'm of a mind 2 make some mookie, he he?- phonebook"

The phone rings - it's Vicki callin'
She wants me 2 come 2 the crib
U see, conversation's better than being lonely
So I try my best 2 ad lib
I tell her the joke about the woman
Who asked her lover - "Why is your organ so small?"
He replied, "I didn't know I was playin' in a cathedral"
Vicki didn't laugh at all

This is where she wants 2 be
And I am what she wants 2 see
I've never known a love so sweet
But still I keep Vicki waiting
Alright

All is well in Gotham City
The sound of terror is all U hear
Sometime a pistol take the place of her body
Sometimes her body's here
U see, when crime is your only love
All that matters - the present, the here and now
People, people - whatever floats this Joker's boat
Is whatever this Joker will bang

CHORUS:
This is where she wants 2 be (I?-)
I am what she wants 2 see
Never known a love so sweet
Still I keep Vicki waiting

Oh yeah
Wait on, mama

Talk of children still frightens me
Is my character enough 2 be? (Never)
One that deserves a copy made? (Never, never)
This I one day, I hope 2 see
Until then she's held at bay by my animal-like persistence
Or maybe she's just 2 proud 2 say
That fate (fate) brought us 2gether
And this is where she wants 2 stay

CHORUS {x2}
(Oh)
(Oh yeah)
(Ah yeah, yeah, yeah)

All is well in Gotham Town (This is where she wants 2 be)
I am what she wants 2 see
I've never known a love so sweet
But still I keep Vicki?-
Still I keep Vicki?-
Still I keep Vicki waiting, oh yeah (Waiting)
Uh-huh, uh-huh
Still I keep Vicki?-
Still I keep Vicki waiting

This is where she wants 2 be

(W, X, Y, Z)

"Hey, it's the man!"
"Yeah, let's see what's going on!"
Hey, hey

CHORUS:
Trust - who do ya?
Trust - what makes U a real lover?
Trust - I put this question 2 ya cuz I want U 2 be with me

Love - U cannot imagine
How much I wanna give 2 U
Hot - I get so excited
Just thinkin' about all we could do
Dig it now
Another world awaits us
Another power 2 see
Close - don't worry about nobody else
From now on U'll be here with me

CHORUS

Money - how much'll make U happy?
U can have it all if it'll suit U right
Nothin', I said nothin' can take the place
Of U and me kickin' it tight, tight
Come - it's easy
Just let yourself go, don't put up a fight
Sex - it's not that type of party (Higher, higher, higher)
Girl, we're gettin' higher 2 night (Oh Lord)

CHORUS

Yeah, ooh
